Introducing Borchi® Dragon Low VOC high-performance catalyst
New offering from Milliken & Company's Borchers coating additives brand delivers outstanding drying performance SPARTANBURG, S.C., May 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Borchers, a Milliken & Company brand and global leader in advanced coating additives, is proud to introduce Borchi® Dragon Low VOC, a high-performance catalyst designed to offer formulators a drying solution for alkyd coatings that is low in Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) content. Borchi® Dragon Low VOC can provide outstanding drying performance while aiming to meet evolving VOC regulations in solvent borne and solvent-free alkyd formulations. As a manganese-based solution, the product is also designed to be free of cobalt, which faces regulatory scrutiny in several regions. "We are committed to delivering additive options like Borchi® Dragon Low VOC that help meet current labeling requirements and future-proof from potential regulations in final coating formulations," said Jeff Losch, vice president and coating additives business manager at Milliken. "This focus aligns with Milliken & Company's commitment to sustainability, which has earned the company a gold EcoVadis rating for three consecutive years." Borchi® Dragon Low VOC contains only 2% VOC content based on ASTM D2369 standards and can help formulators reduce VOCs without sacrificing drying speed, even in challenging ambient conditions. Additionally, the catalyst offers a higher flash point (enabling safer handling), reduced yellowing, and better hardness when compared to low-VOC alternative driers. Borchi® Dragon Low VOC is up to 92% biobased carbon, as determined by ASTM D6866-24 B standards. VOCs can be released from paint in room-temperature conditions even after the paint has dried. Governments worldwide, including those in the United States and European Union, have implemented regulations to lower VOC levels in coatings to help protect public health. Traditionally, cobalt driers are added to alkyd formulations to accelerate cure times. However, the use of cobalt compounds in coatings has also faced regulatory scrutiny due to health toxicity concerns, being classified as a Category 1B carcinogen in the European Union and currently under evaluation by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Borchi® Dragon Low VOC is an excellent addition to Borchers' comprehensive range of cobalt-free high-performance catalysts, which includes Borchi® OXY-Coat iron-based driers for a variety of alkyd formulations. Other cobalt-free solutions include the new Borchi® Phoenix accelerator that is designed to enhance drier performance in high solids and solventborne alkyd coatings.

IOVA FRAUD: Suffer Losses on Iovance Biotherapeutics, Inc.? You may have been Affected by Fraud and are Urged to Contact BFA Law (NASDAQ:IOVA)
NEW YORK, May 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Leading securities law firm Bleichmar Fonti & Auld LLP announces that a lawsuit has been filed against Iovance Biotherapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: IOVA) and certain of the Company's senior executives for potential violations of the federal securities laws. If you invested in Iovance you are encouraged to obtain additional information by visiting Investors have until July 14, 2025, to ask the Court to be appointed to lead the case. The complaint asserts claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 on behalf of investors who purchased Iovance securities. The case is pending in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California and is captioned Sundaram v. Iovance Biotherapeutics, Inc., et al. , No. 25-cv-04177. Why was Iovance Sued for Securities Fraud? Iovance is a commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of treatments for melanoma and other solid tumor cancers. The Company commercially launched its key melanoma treatment Amtagvi in February 2024. Iovance administers Amtagvi at the Company's authorized treatment centers ('ATCs'). As alleged, Iovance repeatedly touted its ATCs as a driver of demand for Amtagvi. In truth, Iovance's ATCs were experiencing long timelines to begin treating patients with Amtagvi, and ineffective patient identification and patient selection for treatment was causing high patient drop-offs at the ATCs. The Stock Declines as the Truth is Revealed On May 8, 2025, Iovance reported disappointing financial results for 1Q25 and announced it was 'revising full-year 2025 revenue guidance.' The Company blamed 'recent launch dynamics,' including slow 'treatment timelines for new ATCs' and 'the variable pace at which ATCs began treating patients,' which 'differs from center to center.' Iovance also blamed the poor results on high 'patient drop-off' due to inadequate 'patient selection' for treatment. On this news, the price of Iovance stock declined more than 44%, from $3.17 per share on May 8, 2025, to $1.75 per share on May 9, 2025. Click here if you suffered losses: What Can You Do?
